That looks amazing!Great depth effect with the madel-rays and the background is inspiring!I am glad to see someone with similar idea i had,from the entries i was starting to think i might have misunderstood what the contest requests.I'm pretty stuck with mine for now at ~60%,i hope i get inspired soon Btw ,did you noticed there a SONIC pic in the contest entries folder????

Thanks! I think the only rule is that at least one mandelbrot must be visible. So if the Sonic guy had slapped a mandy in his piece and called it a fractal manip I suppose it had been a valid entry Hope you get some inspiration
